Quit exchanging gifts years ago. Haven't given her anything since I wrapped up an empty tin and gave up dipping Copenhagen. She cried and then got all peeved when I switched over to Camel Snus pouches.
The last gift before that was a jar of jalapeño peanut brittle which went over huge.

She does not know that we (children and I) are getting her one of the upper end iRobot Roomba's. Ironic part of this is there was a commercial for one last night and I said to the wife those look pretty cool, wonder how well they work? Now my daughter is on the opposite couch and my wife pops off and says, that would not work for us with all of the hair shed from our dog. I said really with todays technology you would think they were built to handle that. Wife says Technology does not have squat on massive amounts of dog hair, daughter is looking at me with a smirk like, oh chit. I guess we are going to find out how well it works

Per her request...
New sliding glass (or french) doors to the back porch...
I think I would rather buy her a necklace or something...much less labor intensive...

My wife and I really don’t do “Christmas.” We have Christmas all year long. If we come across something we like/want/need we get it. If we come across something we think the other would like, we get it. Actual Christmas is more for the kids/grandkids/family. It works for us, but we are both very frugal so we really gotta think it’s important.

Recently bought her a new treadmill and washing machine. Big ticket items, hoping that will suffice. That's funny.............for her birthday you can get her vacumn cleaner perhaps  Don’t laugh, I gave mine a new vacuum cleaner couple years ago. Lol we are getting each other a robo vacumn and robo mop. Look into the protective cushion they sell on Amazon or making your own, those suckers can tear up your trim, I learned that the hard way.

Anything my wife wants, which is typically nothing, We have everything a person could want, the exception being a $500 million lottery win.
A fat lotto payout would be good. Other than that, we don't want anything else material. We have too much stuff as it is.

A fat lotto payout would be good. Other than that, we don't want anything else material. We have too much stuff as it is. That would be way too much. Your life would be totally ruined before three years were up. Why? Because you think you will be getting the total amount. What you get is approximately 31% of the total. Your $500 million would be in actuality just over $150 million. You and every around you would have a propensity to think of that amount as "unlimited". It isn't. But good luck with that wish.
